HALLELUKA: Luka Clinches All-NBA 1st team. 4th in 5 years

[ItsGoTime]

As some have pointed out, he may not be run-and-jump/lateral quickness athletic, but his core strength is among the highest percentile among NBA players - the stopping on a dime, balance, body control driving to the hoop....

Edit: posted this before watching the above video. Yeah, what he said.

I think he has amazing body control and balance, but isn't it kindof a bit easier to "stop on a dime" and "decelerate" when you don't accelerate faster? Harden does much of the same thing Luka does BTW. I think some of the "decelerate' things have more to do with his handles and getting the defender off balance or trying hard to recover, which allows him to get to where he wants to go.
